The Lord Takes His Minister's Wife

A modern office worker dies from overwork and transmigrates as the legitimate daughter of a Grand Tutor. She marries into a marquis's household, where she and her husband live happily together.

She thought her hard times were finally over.

Until the night of a palace banquet, when she ran into the drunken new emperor in the imperial garden and he held her tightly.

She struggled in terror, but couldn't bring him back to his senses. In desperation, she injured him and fled.

For the next two months, she lived on tenterhooks, afraid the emperor would settle the score, but, unexpectedly, all remained calm.

But in the end, an invitation to the princess's coming-of-age ceremony arrived at the marquis's residence.

There was nowhere for her to hide.

A palace attendant led her into a secluded palace. The vermilion doors slammed shut behind her...

The figure that slowly emerged from the shadows wore dragon embroidery on their sleeve, its gleam making her eyes ache.
